And Biden, in his fourth year, just gave one of the strongest American speeches in decades. Some iron resolve in that one.
It’s pretty good
MAGA chuds in Nov. 2016: Oh come on, what’s the worst that could happen if Trump were to become President?
MAGA chuds in Nov. 2020: Oh come on, 400,000 [COVID] deaths isn’t even that many people!
The trick to facing a painful is to pretend that it never happened. All those people died from a vaccine that wasn’t available yet, or it was conspiracy from the death panels, or whatever moronic thing helps them cope.
Nah, they’ll just say all those people didn’t die, it’s a conspiracy from the deep state to make Trump look bad.
Just the last one? Really?
It’s not the only one that was really destructive, but it was appreciably worse than the previous ones in terms of day-to-day life.
But it’s important to remember that part of why it was so bad is the previous ones. He gutted our ability to respond to a pandemic right before we had a global pandemic.
That’s what was so unbelievably dumb. He could have used the precautions that were implemented under Obama, claimed it as his own and would have been reelected as a hero. Instead, out of spite, he destroyed it because he hated Obama and everything he stands for.
